I just realized that you posted this on the Social Side.... this is where we do everyday chit chat.... If you will repost your question on the Substance Abuse side (go to the top of the screen and click on Substance Abuse Addiction Community and repost your question you will get more responses! There is a lot more action over there as welll.... and when you do if you will post what meds you are on that would be great!

Welcome to the forum....there is lots of info & support here to help you. We do need to know what you are taking and how much..... are you only on pain meds?

It is do-able to detox....there are different options.... but need to know what you are on first!
